The analysis focuses on Germany's response to the sovereign debt crisis through the lens of Rational Choice theory. It highlights the government's rational actions in supporting Greece to prevent a larger crisis, yet notes a decline in public support due to poor communication. The study argues that miscommunication created a disconnect between the government's national interest and public perception. It concludes with recommendations for the German government to improve domestic handling of the Euro crisis, aiming for effective resolution and restored public trust.
